I've changed disc pads on my truck and car but never on my 07 sportster. I really don't want to take it somewhere, would rather do it myself, any tips?

Read the service manual and go for it.
I have done them on sportsters, softail standards, deluxs and fatboys and had no problems. Don't know how long it takes other people to do a set but if you pay a steelership for an hour of work you payed too much.

Replacing the pads is easy. The key is to wash the works down with water first, clean the exposed piston areas as much as possible. I like to use a athletic shoe laces to clean all the way around the pistons before you push them back into the bores...this way you do not drive the junk into there and cause them to stick later on.
